G. S. JACOBS,

The big x.
The x opens next Wednesday.
The new Hennepin Avenne theatre is
rapidly approaching completion. It is
the intention to open the house Mon
day Sep. 10 with Barrett and Booth as
the attraction.
| Invitations were sent out Tuesday to
all the members Of the legislature,
mayors of many Of the cities OF the
state and large number of the most
prominent citizens to be present at the
opening exercises of the Exposition.
The street illumination in Minneapo-
lis during the progress of the EXPOSE
ton will be far more beautiful than that
of last year, and is intended to surpass
that of any city in America on similar
occasions. Nicollet Avenue from the
City Hall to Seventh street will be one
blaze Of light, more than 10000 burners
being used.
The five gunboat models sent by the
government to the Exposion arrived
Tuesday, and with them Mr.. Marceron,
the builder of the models and the gem
tleman who will have charge of that ex-
hibit during the Exposition. These are
all models Of the latest style of gunboat
being built by the United States. Every
detail of the original is faithfully repre-
sented, even to the armament and rig
ging.
Between three and four hundred
thousand people visited the Exposition
last year. From all that the manage
ment can learn the number this year
will exceed q half million by very con-
siderable. Excursions are organizing on
all the leading lines Of railroad center
ing at st. Paul and Minneapolis, fllrn-
ishing the greatest crowd of people who
have ever assembled on any occasion in
the Northwest.
About go o'clock Wednesday after
noon William Costly, a colored man in
the employ Of Eddy & Son, was shot
twice in the breast while cleaning a %
caiber revolver. The weapon was rusty
and Costly was making an effort to re-
move the cartridges. In some mex
plainable way two chambers were dis
charged. The balls entered the centre
OF the chest and were but two inches
apart The singular manner of the
shooting created suspicion that Costly
intended to commit suicide. He was
removed to his home in the rear of 315
Second avenue south. DR.. J. e. Moore
extracted enc of the bullets, but the
second one cannot be located. The
mans condition is very uncertain. He
says that it was accidental.

The first newspaper published by a
Negro in America was the RAMS Horn,
Of New York, which appeared in 1884
and lived about one year. Sam T. Ward
a fugitive slave was the editor. The
next was the Colored American, started
in the same city in 1886, and had ashort
life. One of its editors, Phillip A. Bell.
now ninety years of age, is the editor of
the San Francisco Elevator. The only
other Negro newspaper started prior to
the emancipation of the race was the
Anglo african, established in New York
in 1858. Thomas Hamilton was the ed
itor and proprietor, and the paper lived
six years.

Never before has Keokuk been in
such a whirl of gayety as this summer,
the many visitors that have been at
tracted to our pleasant little city com
plain that they came for rest, but, alas!
found none, parties, socials and picnics
have succeeded each other so rapidly that
! it has been rather difficult to keep up
with them all. The select picnic of the
season was given by the Parlor Circle on
the 18th in honor of the visitors in our
city. Everybody was on the qui vive
for some weeks, and Wednesday morn
| ing the lowering clouds and the distant
rumble of thunder nor the heavy rain
of the previous evening could dampen
pleasureable anticipations of the merry
picnicers who filed their large excursion
cars and wendell their way to Wild Cat
Springs the lovliest picnic grounds for
miles around. Miller's orchestra ac-
companied us and those who cared to
indulge in the Terpsichorean art tripped
the light fantastic toe to their hearts
content. The croquet grounds and the
swings were not neglected by any
means and the curtains of night began
to close around the light Of day eve the
happy party gathered up the fragments
Of good things, under which the tables
fairly greaned, and voted solidly that
they had never spenta pleasanter day.
The Parlor Circle is gaining rapidly
and winning golden opinions in the
community for its recherche entertain
ments and the excellence of the pro-
grams which characterize them. The
one thing needful is young men there is
a deplorable scarcity of the desired ar
ticle here owing to the fact that there is
very little employment for any colored
man, and nothing at all for an intelli-
gent one, unless his soul does not rise
above the veriest drudgery.
